I would like to put forth the theory that LordBills is either a secret Longhorn or a secret Tide fan intentionally supporting Manziel in an effort to turn everyone else against him and Aggies in general

Also, offseason sucks. Life's a drag without football.

He said he ran a 4.46 in the summer, that 4.4 is his goal. Would be amazing at 272, IMO.

Read a couple people who stood next to him felt he was more 6'5". We'll see. Arm strength is his concern for me, physically.

My main concern are his feet. That really set-back Mario, plantar-fasciitis, sprained big toe & other foot disorders. If Clowney's wheels are good (do Texans have same medical team or have they learned how to evaluate) he should bring serious trade offers, if not take BPA.

You aren't saying that you think Clowney will attract trade offers from other teams to the Texans' for their 1.1 just because he checks out medically are you ?
And I would look for Clowney to run in the 4.60 - 4.70 range.

Some people forget the added height from cleats or shoes when estimating height up close. I know my son at 6'7" is over 7' after adding his gear (both boots and helmet add significantly to final height.

And with myself at 6'2", I thought Hakeem was much shorter than the 7' reported when I met him. It actually shocked me. I just didn't have to look up that much.

But the Combine should answer the question. It's like waiting for the water to boil.

I'm still shocked at how many people think Manziel will run a sub-4.5 at the combine. Only 5 QB's have ever done it (Reggie McNeal, Robert Griffin, Marcus Vick, Denard Robinson, & Brad Smith) and Griffin is the only one who didn't change positions at the next level.

I'm shocked at the number of people who find it shocking. He ran away from SEC defenders for two years, he's got some wheels.

I won't be shocked with a 4.45, nor will I be shocked with a 4.60. I'm not expecting outside of that range.

a 4.45 and 4.6 are exceptional times for an NFL QB.

If Clowney checks out as medically sound that would erase a lot of his detractors (me for one) maybe not all but more than likely a sound business that does through research into a major investments.
